after a getaway to Arlington last week to host the Oakland Golden Grizzlies, looking to grow on their 11-1 record in the 2026 season thus far. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5i\">However, thanks to inclement weather anticipated in the Bryan-College Station area, it will not be a traditional Friday-Saturday-Sunday weekend; we will instead have a doubleheader on our hands at Blue Bell Park. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5l\">The two teams will now play the first two games of the series on Friday before wrapping up play Saturday afternoon, skipping the Sunday game entirely. <\/p>\n<p>Texas A&amp;M-Oakland Series Moved To Friday

[&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"62\">With the changes put in place, the game times for the Texas A&amp;M-Oakland series are now set as followed:<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"65\">Game 1: Friday at 2:00 PM<br \/>Game 2: Friday at 6:00 PM (or 45 minutes after completion of Game 1)<br \/>Game 3: Saturday at 2:00 PM<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"68\">The Aggies enter the series having recently defeated the Incarnate Word Cardinals in an 11-1 run-ruling that saw them score four runs in the bottom of the seventh inning, ending when<a

the Golden Grizzlies are the direct opposite, sitting at just 1-11 with a nine-game losing streak with their lone win on the year coming in the finale of their opening series with the Lamar Cardinals, a 3-2 win in 10 innings. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6e\">The series against the Aggies marks the sixth, seventh, and eighth consecutive games against ranked SEC squads for the Golden Grizzlies, who played four games against the No. 9 Georgia Bulldogs, including a Saturday doubleheader, and a midweek loss on Wednesday to the No. 11 Tennessee Volunteers. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6h\">In addition to their midweek win, the Aggies went 2-1 during their participation in the AmegyBank College Baseball Series at Globe Life Field, defeating Virginia Tech via the mercy rule in their opening game, before falling victim to the mercy rule themselves in their first loss of the season to No. 1 UCLA and ending the weekend on a high note with a 9-3 win over Arizona State. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px]

pitchers, while the team&#8217;s lineup may still be without both Chris Hacopian and Wesley Jordan, who are still dealing with injuries, but could have a chance to suit up this weekend. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6n\">Sdao&#8217;s first pitch of the first game on Friday is scheduled for 2:00 PM from Olsen Field at Blue
